Freedom in the New Covenant!
by Marshall Beeber

Introduction

In  recent years false Messianic Jewish and Hebrew Roots theologies have  arisen stating that the Apostle Paul was under the Law of Moses (Torah  observant) while ministering the gospel and likewise instructed  believers in Yeshua (Jesus) to be Torah observant. Given the  evidence  to the contrary, it is necessary that a Biblical reference list of  statements from the Pauline Epistles supporting the gracious freedom of  the New Covenant be published.

These  statements should form a logical argument that should outweigh any  erroneous doctrine stating otherwise.  Those thinking these Biblical   passages were taken out of context should  spend some time reading the  Epistles as well as obtaining grace oriented studies.  After thorough   study you too may agree that Paul's  writings supports gracious  freedom.   Either his writings were divinely inspired or he was a  heretic!   Furthermore, such knowledge will emancipate the believer to a  level of  freedom not experienced in ones lifetime!
